DRAIN RADIATOR AND MOTOR Keep Engine Going Long Enough to Evaporate Every Drop of Water to Prevent Freezing and Possibly Bursting Jackets. When it is found necessary to store your car during the winter months the water should be thoroughly drained from the radiator and motor, after which the engine should be run under Its own power until it becomes thor oughly heated. Do not run the motor too fast, but keep it going long enough to evaporate every particle of water that may be "pocketed" to prevent the water freezing nnd possibly bursting the water jackets. Put Tires in Dark Room. It Is desirable to remove the tires and place them In a dark room where they are not subjected to extreme tem perature changes. The casings should be thoroughly cleaned to remove all oil which may have adhered to them. After removing the tires, thoroughly clean the inside of the wheel rims and npply a coat of enamel to prevent rust, which is very injurious to the fabric of the tire. If the tires nre not removed. Jack up.the car so that the wheels clear the floor at least two Inches, and let the air out of the tubes. Under no circumstances should the car he stored in a barn or other build ing in which horses or cattle are kepi at the same time. The ammonia fumes given off will quickly discolor the paint and enamel. , Select a building having a good roof, and preferably a wooden floor raised several Inches from the ground. All bright metal parts should be thoroughly coated with slab oil, vaseline, cosmic or gun grease to pre vent rusting. Care of Motor. Remove the spark plugs and pour Into each cylinder about two table spoonfuls of a mixture of equal parts of lard and kerosene oil. Then turn the motor over slowly by hand several times until the cylinder walls and pis tons are thoroughly covered with the oily compound. To clean the cloth upholstery on sedan bodies, use warm water and white soap only. Gasoline has a ten dency to spread the grease and le/e a discolored spot. After cleaning, wipe dry with a clean cloth. The top of the car should he thor oughly cleaned and all dust, brushed out. Never attempt to clean the top or curtains with gasoline or kerosene -use a good brush or broom. If possible the top should be kept open, which will keep it well stretched and smooth. If this cannot be done, use care In folding it—see that the folds are straight and that none of the fabric is pinched between the hows or supports. Do not fold the top until it is thor oughly dry, because any moisture re maining in the fabric will likely cause mildew, resulting in an unsightly and leaky top. Before storing the car the engine should he run long enough to thorough ly charge the storage battery. The hydrometer should show that the grav ity of the electrolyte In each cell is upl to 1.280.

To tie city of London, Ontario, Canada, belongs the credit for Installing a vpry novel system by which tlie radiators of automobiles may be kept warm while'the cars are standing outdoors in cold weather. The local electric light company' has Installed current taps- on poles at convenient points throughout (he city. Anyone wishing to take advantage of the electric current for beating their radiator while the ear Is left standing, pays an annual tee and receives a key thai fits the conduit of the current taps. The patron also receive! a' license number which Is attached to the connecting cord of bis electric heater that the Inspector of the-electric light company can see whether or nut authorized parties are using the plugs. . - THE pulljAan (Herald THINGS TO AVOID Don't overload your tires. A tire- will give out sooner from overload than from almost any other cause. Don't underlntlate. Underln flntlon ami overloading account for fully BO per cent of all tire trouble. Don't neglect small cuts. These will often extend further than you think, Dirt and water gets In, the fabric rots, and a blowout follows. Look over your tires from time to time and repair small cuts. Don't run In ruts, car tracks or against curbing. The side walls of a tire are much thinner than the tread and will not stand this kind of usage. Don't start or stop suddenly or skid around corners. The strain thus set up in the tires is terrific. Don't run on a flat tire. Bet ter run on the rim if only for a short distance.

To pre vent this, fasten a piece of an Inner tube to the chain as shown; fasten one end of the piece of tube direct to the chain and the other end to a snap, the snap making it quicker and easier to remove the lire chains. The rubber keeps the chain tight so that it does not hit the fenders. —p. A. Gorton ln Power Farming. AUTOMOBILE _I The careful car owner keeps his garage floor free of Water, oil or grease.

The derrick timber for the (Jordan Campbell Co is being moved to its location some three miles northwest of Kevin. Active drilling will commence in the course of a lew days, as there is an abundant supply of water, and the bunk houses and cook shack are completed. All that remains to be done is to put up the derrick, and haul the tools. to it and this is being accomplished as rapidly as men and horses can do the work. "There are a number of other companies in the Kevin field that intend to have their drills working within the next three months.
